How successful was the Jimmy Carter presidency?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER: The text gives Carter more credit than his successor. The problems with the energy crisis
and inflation were not of Carter's own making. But like Ford, Carter had a difficult time working with Congress, even though it was controlled by members of his party. Carter's successes in foreign policy, such as the Camp David Accords and Panama Canal Treaty, were undercut by the disaster in Iran. A strong essay might point out that any president would have been hard pressed to come up with solutions to these problems.
